Des Moines Area Community College leaders announced late Wednesday that they will be taking preventative measures following spring break to try to mitigate exposure to the Covid-19 virus. Provost of the Carroll campus, Joel Lundstrom, says they have all been watching the news closely and have legitimate concerns for the well-being of their students and staff.
The staff and administration at the Carroll campus are going to rely on their technological experience to make this transition as seamless as possible.
All existing online classes will resume on Monday, March 23 after spring break. When it comes to certain courses, face-to-face learning is necessary and Lundstrom says they are working to limit exposure yet still maintain the quality learning experience for students.
The DMACC plan also encompasses high school students who take classes through the college.
All campus services will remain open and operate as usual. At this time, the spring term is still scheduled to end the week of May 4. For those seeking more information, contact details and a link for all DMACC updates can be found below.
